The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 600: Dream Egg: The Sun That Never Sets

Chapter 600: Dream Egg: The Sun That Never Sets

The fantasy tower that “only those who desire could see” was filled with intrigues.

To deceive others better, you must first deceive yourself.

Therefore, the magic tower apprentices would use a simple Idol Spell to split away a particular part of their memory and personality, hiding them inside a vessel.

This spell could be used even before the person had advanced into a transcender. However, the upper limit of “mask” that could be held at the same time was closely related to one capability.

Through ident.i.ty splitting, the wizards could achieve precise and controllable changes in their personalities and thinking approaches.

For example, 70% fear, 90% rage, 50% greed, etc.

In this way, even if others peeped into their memory, it would not reveal their flaws; when others tested their character, they could also demonstrate their innocence naturally.

This was more than an acting skill, but a manifestation of a “mask”.

Every ident.i.ty could be weaved into a “mask”.

For example, to be made a philanthropist, he could acquire the mask of “philanthropist” and dispose of “greed” and “rage” that contradicted the character.

However, the person could store compa.s.sion, indecisiveness, and mercy inside the “mask”. Then, if the person did not use this curse vessel, his character would become highly ruthless and decisive.

In the same way, to put away the evil characteristics, the person had to create a disguise of a villain. As long as he could separate the two ident.i.ties in the society’s perception, he could activate the magic, which also required three chants and one personal item.

After reaching the Gold Rank, the ident.i.ty split would bring power.

An advanced ident.i.ty split like what Trisino Seti had performed would allow different selves to have independent thinking. If the mask were stored in the body, the person would achieve “multiple personalities”.

Trisino could even store different thoughts, different abilities, and even different types of elements in different ident.i.ties. By switching ident.i.ties, he could realize “omnipotence”.

However, if a Gold Rank Idol Wizard released his ident.i.ty with consciousness…

Then, the situation would be different.

When this ident.i.ty entered another body, it could be understood as “being freed”.

Henceforth, there was no distinction between the primary ident.i.ty and sub-ident.i.ty. Consequently, the status of both parties was the same.

This was “acting” at the highest level that blurred the line between false and true.

Although “Dream Eater” and “Gray Professor” were the same person, after his ritual succeeded, “Bone Healer” Seti and “Professor Wolf” Frederick were divided into “two people”.

Their only connection was that they had a “common memory”. They knew that the other person was once a person with themselves. However, their previous memories were not completely shared.

“That is to say…the teacher may not know the situation on [Professor Wolf]’s side.”

Or maybe he really is innocent.

Nefertari didn’t voice out the latter part of the sentence.

She was worried that this might make Annan suspicious of her.

Even she herself didn’t have the confidence to say such words calmly.

I may even have started to have doubts about the teacher.

Thinking of this, Nefertari was a little lost for a while.

On the other hand, Annan frowned, thinking of something.

Is the book that instantly killed Husky the “prize” Seti won from the magic tower?

Just as Annan pondered it, Husky and Thirteenth Fragrance slowly woke up.

Looking at their sudden increase of nearly 20,000 experience points, they felt like getting rich overnight.

After defeating the twisted difficulty nightmare with one blow, the two players acquired 18,000 experience points each.

These ma.s.sive experience points raised their wizard apprentice level to Level 10 instantly. After they advance, they might be pushed directly to the position close to the next advancement level.

It became not a dream to ascend to Silver Rank, breaking through two ranks consecutively in a short period!

The only thing that inhibited their advancement speed was the step of “obtaining the advancement conditions”.

“Speak up, Husky.” Annan suddenly asked Husky, “How did you die in the end?

“Did you accidentally glimpse the contents of that book? Did you have any special experience when you died?”

“…Actually, I have no memories of it.”

The silver-haired girl with a single ponytail rubbed her eyes and thoughtfully replied, “When I opened the book, I felt something rus.h.i.+ng into my brain. Then, I realized that ‘something got into my brain’. After that, I have no memory of anything.”

“—That’s an occult knowledge bearing too much weight on your soul. Miss Husky’s soul hasn’t accomplished the condensation stage yet, so she can’t bear that level of occult knowledge.”

Just then, Benjamin came out from the inner room.

He said in a deep voice, “[The Man in the Mirror] let me thank you. He has retrieved his power back.”

“In addition to the holy light engravings already paid to you, He owes you another favor. You can call any of His names through that mirror if you need it. We will be there immediately. “

Although it was a nightmare that Husky and Thirteenth Fragrance cleared, Pope Benjamin did not hesitate to remember this favor on Annan’s part.

This showed that Pope Benjamin probably already knew the essence of the “players”.

Probably the Man in the Mirror told Pope Benjamin.

“I see.” Annan nodded and replied in a deep voice.

Annan’s pupils didn’t move at all. The calm face that belonged to Ghirlandaio gave people a sense of reliability.

Annan changed the subject, “But did you say occult knowledge?

“Can you tell me what field and level of occult knowledge it is about?”

Hearing this answer, Annan was a little relaxed.

Justice’s physical strength was too incomprehensible.

If this book could obliterate his body, then Annan would never dare to touch it.

However, if it was because Husky’s soul rank was too low, Annan wanted it.

While Husky was searching, Annan saw a map of the underground city — or perhaps the subway lines. He remembered the approximate location of the ritual area.

The book might no longer be there or have been taken away long ago.

However, Annan did not want to miss out on the possibility.

“Are you interested in that book?”

Benjamin was a little surprised.

He communicated silently with the mirror in his arms and then said, “If you wish, the Man in the Mirror can bring you that book directly.”

“Ah, that’s not necessary.”

Annan quickly stopped, “I know where it is. I’m just a little curious about what it’s.”

It would be a waste to use the favor for this book.

“I can give you this level of information for free.”

Benjamin replied, “That is “Dream Egg: The Sun That Never Sets”, written by the Motherly Moth. It is not a highly cla.s.sified doc.u.ment from the beginning of creation but a record of a ‘dream’ She had. It is a key to one of the worlds at the end of that dream world.”

“It’s about a world where the same day repeats endlessly, from sunrise to sunset, and the sun never sets. It is the story of a parallel world, as you previously guessed: it is the ‘wager’ Trisino once won from the Mother Moth in the Thousand Faces Illusory Tower.”
